Another Beachwood Special Report
A new stretch of the Riverwalk just opened, so the Beachwood Field Trip Affairs Desk took a little jaunt downtown to check it out. Here’s what we found:
* An animatronic but unnamed Daley screwing everything up.
* The Old Man Daley Fishing Pier.
* Another Billy Goat Tavern!
* Throw coins in the water for luck – and to fund city pensions!
* Navy Pier? The Riverwalk has the National Guard Pier!
* The SUPES cafe, where no-bid coffee comes without receipts.
* The Tom Thibodeau Film Room.
* A Redmoon Theater re-creation of $100 million going up in smoke.
* A really nice view of the TRUMP sign.
* The Gorton’s Fisherman.
* Some really cool fish.
* A fat guy and a skinny guy leading a three-hour tour.
* Bridgetenders eating chicken tenders.
* Men and their thoughts.
* The charter Riverwalk, so parents have a choice.
* Rahm’s sunken infrastructure trust, lying at the bottom of the river in a tangle of seaweed, sewage and hubris.
* Express water taxi service to Wilmette.
